Oh its of interest , but until he decides to part with his pride and joy, we sit back and wait, hopefully one day he,ll want some info or parts and we,ll get a foot in the door. He hasn,t wrecked it yet and he,s getting older, its still out there.

Interesting that the unit at Penrith had canvas doors originally, been steel skinned at some time. The previous pic was of the old Woodstock Fire truck recently de comissioned but as yet unaltered in private hands, goes where the new Isusu won,t just take longer.
